Rooted in collectivism, refusal, and shared survival, ‘We’re Still Here’ captured The HIRS Collective at their most expansive and intentional. Rather than centering identity or authorship, the album doubled down on de-individualization as both method and message, transforming grindcore into a vehicle for community, care, and confrontation. Built around the belief that ideas gain power only when shared, the record rejected the dilution of radical language and reclaimed it through action, collaboration, and volume. It stood not as a singular artistic statement, but as a living network of voices bound by resistance and mutual support.

Spanning 17 tracks and featuring more than 35 collaborators, ‘We’re Still Here’ unfolded as an immersive act of world-building. Extreme brevity collided with overwhelming density as blast-driven violence, power-violence chaos, and noise-saturated hardcore merged with contributions from across punk, metal, and experimental music. Every feature reinforced the album’s core idea: once you participate, you become part of the Collective. Completely self-produced and self-managed, the record radiated defiance without nihilism, channeling spite into joy, connection, and endurance. ‘We’re Still Here’ functioned as proof that survival itself can be radical — loud, communal, and impossible to erase.
